Miracle Pan Release
I’m so excited about my newest recipe… for this… It looks like it might taste good… but it won’t. It’s not frosting or batter… it’s what makes cake and frosting possible though. It’s Miracle Pan Release. :D I’m not buying cooking spray anymore. I don’t know if the stuff that is in it is …
Homemade Tooth Powder
When preparing to share this recipe with you all I was trying to decide how long I wanted this post to be. Did I want to talk about the evil chemicals that lurk within the average tube of toothpaste on the grocery store shelf? Did I want to talk about the fact that fluoride is …
Homemade Deodorant!
This stuff is great! My armpits smell like spring meadows and happiness! In cooler weather the mixture turns solid but since I live in crazy jungle heat mine will remain liquid.. the A/C keeps it at a semi liquid state. Still…. happy smelling armpits! :D PS. Ignore the Colgate product placement… they didn’t pay me. …
Homemade Fabric Softener
This saves a ton of cash and my clothes still smell “Downy” fresh. :D It’s easy to mix up so get the ingredients next time you are at the store and when you run out of fabric softener just whip up a batch and start saving money. Recipe Source: The Frugal Girls
Homemade All Purpose Cleanser
I’m trying to save money and my household from toxic chemicals. It’s a bonus when I am able to do both with one small change in the way I do things. I no longer buy Windex or 409 or Lysol Kitchen Cleanser or any of a number of toxins in a squirt bottle that I …
Quick and Easy Restaurant Style Salsa
This is yummy, yummy, yummy salsa. It tastes like the delicious salsa that my favorite Mexican Food restaurant in the States serves. The best parts about this (aside from the taste) are the ease of preparation (the whole thing is assembled in the blender) and the fact that it uses canned tomatoes. I can’t find …
Flour Tortillas
I grew up on these things! As a matter of fact we have them with every meal. Sometimes we would be out of bread but never, ever, out of tortillas. Even now I smile at the thought of my Mom fixing our school lunches only to discover that we were out of bread. It was …
Compound Herb Butter
So, I just gotta tell you… I made the most wonderful grilled cheese sandwiches the other day. We’re talkin’ delicious… like perhaps I would even order and pay for them at a restaurant. I know right? Grilled cheese? What’s the big deal? Don’t worry I’m not going to give you a recipe for a grilled …
Homemade Vanilla Extract
Homemade Vanilla Extract… the good stuff is so expensive; why not make it at home for a fraction of the cost? It all starts with plump, aromatic, good quality vanilla beans. They smell wonderful! Slice each bean down the middle. The trick is to slice enough to let out the magic without slicing so deep …
Homemade Taco Seasoning
It was another one of “those” nights. You know the kind. It was the kind of night where you know you should be cooking for your family, or cleaning something or organizing something or doing anything worth while. Instead of working on the greeat American novel or making blankets and knitting socks for refugees… you’re …
